An artificial satellite is moving in a circular or bit around the earth with a speed equal to half the magnitude of escape velocity from the earth (ii) If the satellite is stopped suddenly in its orbit or allowed to fall freely on the earth, find the speed with which it hits the surface of the earth take `g = 9.8 ms^(-2)`, radius of the earth = 6400 km.

An artificial satellite is moving in a circular orbit around the earth with a speed equal to half the magnitude of escape velocity from the earth. (ii) if the satellite is stopped suddenly in its orbit and allowed to fall freely on to the earth, find the speed with which it hits the surface of the earth. Take g=9.8m*s^(-2) and R_e=6400 km .

An artificial satellite is moving in a circular orbit around the earth with a speed equal to half the magnitude of escape velocity from the earth. If the satellite is stopped suddenly in its orbit and allowed to fall freely on the earth, find the speed with which it hits the surface of earth. Given M = mass of earth and R = Radius of earth

An artificial satellite is moving in a circular orbit around the earth with a speed of equal to half the magnitude of escape velocity from earth. If the satellite is stopped suddenly in its orbit and allowed to fall freely on the earth. Find the speed with which it hits the surface of earth. Given, M=mass of earth & R =Radius of earth

An artificial satellite is moving in a circular orbit around the earth with a speed equal to 3//8 times of th emagnitude of escape velocity from the earth. If the satellite is stopped suddely in its orbit and allowed to fall freely onto the earth, then the speed with whcih it hits the surface of the earth is (take g = 10 m//s and R_(e ) = 6400 km )
